Hackathon Club from School of Computer Science and Engineering and Swift Ride had organized an event from the finalists (Swift Ride) of Shark Tank India Season 2 on Wednesday, 14th September 2022.
The students were given an outline of how a company grows from a concept to a successful business. The reasons why most startups fail and how to prevent such mistakes, such as defining the problem, end users, and so on, were discussed.
The team at Swift Ride gave the students a hands-on demonstration of their product and gave them their thought process of how they came up with solutions to the problems they faced while building the product.
Apart from the Swift event, the organizers of Hackathon Club hosted a mini activity to raise awareness about the upcoming REVA HACK 2022 by conducting an interactive quiz where participants who answered correctly were rewarded with sweets and a general importance on how a project idea from a hackathon can turn into a startup.
The outcome of these type of events / activities will motivate the students with further exposure to real-world projects and new technologies, as well as the confidence to participate in Hackathons.
